I forgot until late last night to ask. Are there pets in the Chance household? ---

These heels are a bitch…but Wendell came as the sniper, so that’s okay. Oh yeah, and this is Lucretia, because Johnathan stupidly left the computer on without logging off. ---

I just got home. I had a total blast. Dominic collapsed in the van on the way home. I’m toast, so I’m headin gto bed. Grog. Here are the pictures I took: [http://tinyurl.com/28io](http://tinyurl.com/28io) ---

Yeah, really. I almost posted as him in another thread. Were it not for the lovely (and a whole bunch of other things, as those who met her will agree) **fizzy** , I woulda mistakenly posted as him in _at least_ two threads. Anyway, we’re back home (NoVa, not BF, VA) now and have the oh-so-fun (if you like 400±mile drives) drive back to her place later today. I’m thinking that might start at noon. And for some reason (maybe one of y’all small-town dopers can answer this question for me), she wants to see a 7-11 before she leaves. More evidence that she is truly crazy;) ---

Well, I can recall that there wasn’t a 7-11 in Iowa City when I was there for grad school. Everyone get home all right? Don’t forget to adjust those clocks! ---

We remembered to reset our clocks. Which was a good thing, since Airman had a plane to catch. Thanks to JC and Lady Chance, for having us again. And, as usual, it was good seeing all y’all again, and meeting everyone I hadn’t met yet. 🙂 Robin ---

Well now that **fizzy** has been to a dopefest, she has had to explain to her parents both “dopefest” (spent at _least_ five minutes explaining to her father “no it doesn’t mean the drug dope”) and screen name and such things. And we’re now back in BF. And there are no broken bones and such from the tire swing falling on me. ---

Dopers = Locusts Do you realize that you folks ate us out of house and home yesterday? Nothing but some odd candy was left at the end of it all. Baby Kate had to breakfast on orange juice and pickles this morning. I hope you all are proud of yourselves! ---

I didn’t make it into the kitchen in time for anything but some chicken, dude. Not my fault. I didn’t really recognize any of the candy, either. ---

Thanks JC, had a great time. Didn’t even get lost getting there. And Opal you know you have a headlight out, though it might have just been some sort of light shift the way you passed us going home. That and I found one of your hair braids, I might have to hold it for ransom. ---
